Upstand

Upstand

This one’s use is pretty self explanatory, but the execution is pretty slick.

The Upstand is a portable “kickstand” that uses a small magnetic mount between your QR skewer and frame to hold a carbon fiber shaft in place to support your bike.

The shaft breaks into two pieces to fit in a jersey pocket using a two-piece shock-corded design, like a tent pole.

It’s reinforced with alloy and steel sections, and the foot is a durable rubber so it won’t slip or scratch your floors.

Total weight is just 35g, and it sells for $39 with two axle tabs so it’ll work with two bikes out of the box. The axle tabs are only 10g, so it’s not adding too much weight to the bike when not in use.
